Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United Kingdommy room is just a floor up of the balcony bar, it's clearly heard the noice from the customers. Live band singing songs until 24:00 which is very noisy. Early in the morning, right opposite the main street, there are numbers of people talking loudly, so don't expect you could sleep quite well. The inn itself is aged, so not expect to compare with those moderate hotel. Fortunately, a delicious breakfast help her to gain back more points.
good location, delicious breakfast which make to order with choices, staff are nice and friendly.

United KingdomBetter communication from hotel. I had asked via a message if parking was available at hotel 3 days before my stay, but no answer from the hotel. On checking in I was asked if I needed a permit for the car park, as they had parking. But I had already paid for parking in a car park nearby. Had I known this before hand I would have parked where I could with the hotel.
Easy check in, no problems with stay at hotel, location is excellent and breakfast nice.

The staff were lovely, breakfast was amazing! I loved the atmosphere & quirky nature of the building. We knew it was an old building so didn’t expect flawless modern facilities. Large room, separate bathroom, clean and tidy. A Charming place to stay 🥰

United KingdomI booked this hotel, over others in the town as it listed parking in the options, so I was expecting a carpark, as we were travelling on motorcycles. The parking offered is a parking permit to put on the dash of your vehicle, and you then park in the town where you can find a spot. I was told at reception that they aren't suitable for motorcycles. I was left with no choice but to cancel as leaving motorcycles out on the street overnight away from any security is not a wise move or covered by insurance
Location is fantastic, not sure about anything else as we did not actually stay there.

AustraliaYou do need to carry your bags up very narrow and steep stairs so just be aware if you have mobility issues. Parking is up around the bend - and only 15 minutes out front on first arrival to unload bags/check-in. Unfortunately, due to a range of factors, hubby didn’t get the full parking instructions and we ended up with a 35 Pound fine.
Location was wonderful for a one night stay. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We had a cracking night with the live band and other pub goers on the night of our stay - such a fun night! Breakfast was fabulous on a slight hangover 🤕

United KingdomNothing to complain about, all was fine for us. I could advise travelers who have mobility issues or really small children is not to book the rooms at the top of the hotel as the stairs are really steep. But I'm sure the staff would advise on this.
The location of the hotel was excellent, right on the harbour side. Checking in was easy with everything ready for us. The room had a great view of the abbey and was warm and comfy. There was a nice friendly atmosphere around the hotel and bar. Being in the centre of Whitby meant there was a good selection of shops, restaurants and bars to visit.
